Is riding a motor cycle is bad?

Hi good day eve to all,

just wondering..Is riding motor cycle single is bad??because I always ride my motor cycle is i go to the market or go somewhere. And if i sit next to the driver sit at the back of the motor what position is better?:confused

Hi Raish - It doesn't matter if you ride a motor cycle by yourself or as a passenger - the risk is similar (thought this does depend on the skill of the rider). Motor cycles are a more risky form a transport than a car as you are not protected as much in the case of an accident.

I have to agree with aussiemidwife as I have sadly seen some terrible motorcycle crashes.

Everyone is more at risk when riding a motorcycle compared to travelling in a car. This risk is increased further for pregnant women or children. Obviously wearing a properly fitted helmet can minimise this risk, but even then the risk of injury is still significantly greater than car travel.
